Sick of crying
Tired of trying
Yeah, I'm smiling
But inside I'm dying

Hiding fears
Fumbling through years
You may not notice
But I'm drowning in tears

Praying for hope
Trying to cope
You may hear me laughing
But the smile's a joke

Silent doubts
Quiet shouts
I'm screaming for help
But you block me out

Asking why
Telling a lie
I'm not perfect
But at least I try

Not one more tear
Banishing fear
You've tried to bring me down
But I'm still here

No longer soft spoken
Won't be broken
I'm going to fix myself
Because I'm done moping
